Naughty Dog also detailed the pre-order offers that will be available, with retailer exclusive bonuses granting early access to key multiplayer Weapon Mods, Boosters and Medal Kickbacks.

You’ll be able to get early access to the Creepy Crawler Kickback by pre-ordering at GameStop, which “allows you, when you’ve scored the requisite number of Medals, to turn into a swarm of deadly creatures to overwhelm your opponents as long as you’ve got time left on the Kickback countdown timer.”

Best Buy pre-orders will allow you to unlock the Regeneration Booster early, which “increases your healing rate in multiplayer, so that you can recover from your wounds and re-enter battle with full health sooner.”

Meanwhile Amazon.com pre-orders will give you three bonuses, one Kickback and two Weapon Mods. “The Carpet Bomb Kickback allows you to send out three grenades with a single throw to blanket your opponent – or take out a group of opponents – with multiple explosions. The Clip Size Mods for the Para- 9 and G-MAL increase the size of your bullet clip, allowing you to trade more shots with your opponent before you have to reload.”

Lastly Wal-Mart pre-orders will earn you the Callout Weapon Mode, which “allows you to equip your old friend, the AK-47, with a laser sight that enables your entire team to see the location of the opponent you are currently targeting.” Other retailers will also be offering voucher codes for exclusive PSN Avatars and PS3 XMB Themes.

Sony today released more information about pre-order incentives for the upcoming Insomniac produced game Resistance 3. The pre-order incentives vary from a wearable necklace, to the typical multiplayer perks. No word yet if these will be available outside the United States.

Here are the pre-order incentives by company, as posted by the PlayStation Blog.

[tab:Helghast Edition]The Helghast edition of Killzone 3 has been announced today, at a retail price of $129.99. Does the content warrant the price, though? Included is a replica collectible Helghast helmet, a 6.5″ Helghast Marksman action figure (not available in retail), an art book, a ‘super voucher’, and the game with bonus content.

The Super Voucher includes access to the in-game soundtrack, a dynamic theme, the Retro Map Pack (with 2 popular maps from Killzone 2), Double XP for the first 24 hours of multiplayer gameplay, and full access to all weapons and abilities in the same time span.
